    What's the best sub .45?

    I was looking at Kimber ultra's today and they just felt great in my hand. Is there a comparable or nearly comparable Springfield?

    Another question. What's the difference between all the Kimber Ultra models? I mean, there's the Raptor the Eclipse, the RCP. How do I know whats better about these models?

    thanks,
    Tom

          +1 to the Glock Model 30.

          I also like the Glock Model 39, it's even smaller than the Model 30.
          So, get both, like I did.

            Way too much planning on how to sneak it past my wife for it to be an impulse buy. She's pregnant and it's easier to not have to listen to her if I sneaky impulse buy it.

              There you go. I sneaked alot of impulse buys when she was pregnant, but when i bought the safe and stored everything, she saw EVERYTHING and I was up chit creek without a paddle. Man, she was PISSED!
              That being said, the Kimber or Colt would and will be my next pistol purchase. You cant go wrong.

                Are you looking for carry? What about the Kahr P45? Nice and flat so it sits up close against you....

                  Another vote for the G30. I EDC a G29 (same frame/dimensions, better caliber ), in a SideArmor IWB holster and find it to be about the perfect setup.

                  As usual, one man's opinion, your mileage may vary, etc.

                      I've got the Kimber Ultra CDP II and I love it. It's primary use is CCW, one of two main carry guns depending on what type of clothes.

                            I'd go Colt Defender.
